What keeps the shelf from coming loose from the brackets?

There is a little stopper thing they give you to put on the back, so the shelfbcannot slide out of place. It's kind of "hooked" on, so with the stopper, no way it will slide back and come off.

They have little black rubber spaces that hold the shelves in place. This prevents the shelves from coming off the brackets.

The shelf slides into the bracket in the front and back. The space used for the sliding is then taken up with a rubber stopper. They are very secure. They do not slide around when I am removing boxes from the shelves.

There are couple of "brackets holders" included in the mounting package. They work well and install very easily. We installed our over a month ago and so far we have zero problems with the shelves.

On the brackets have a cut-out slots both end (front and back) that will lock the shelf in place. Every hard to come lose by itself.

Once the brackets are up, the shelf slides on from the front, with the points of the brackets going through the grids of the front lip of the shelf. Then once the rear is seated, it slides forward about 3/8" (where there is a grove in the bracket the the rear if the shelf slides under) and there is a rubber stopper placed behind it. Very simple and it doesn't sound like much, but I have 6 pairs around my garage and have yet to have an issue. Hope this helps!

The brackets come with as the basket rails slide into them. I have mine on the bottom with a shelf above it. There is no reason to have a shelf below it. It fits in to the back like all the other brackets so it can go anywhere you want really.

there is a hole drilled in the glass that holds the shelf to the bracket, so they can't be moved. I have a problem with some of my larger components that have thicker cables/bigger connectors behind them. I am considering going to a Glass place and having them just cut me a larger shelf from glass that looks the same. Another option, for the connectors at least, is mounting a piece of 2x4 to the stud, then mounting the wall mount to the 2x4, giving me another 1.5" behind the components to work with. If I cut it to the right size and paint it with a flat black paint I think it will blend right in.

As my husbands aunt says "There's an art to everything". You really need to seat the the bottom of the "shelf" in the bracket. Once you get it seated correctly it is rock solid. There is a lever that you have to pull open all the way. It is a bit tricky.

Yes, no problem. The shelf will hold. You can always buy (or have custom-made) a sheepskin cover for the shelf.

There is a small ledge on the shelf that keeps the items from falling off the shelf. I'm still very happy with this purchase. I have no complaints about it. We've had it for about 6 months now I believe.

Hi. I want to build a shelf that falls down. Not one that gets pulled up. Would it in your opinion make sense to use these brackets? They would be on the two sides of the surface I will be using. Thanks for any reply on that!

The shelf just sits on the top. It is loose, not attached. Any one of the shelves can be picked up and removed without much trouble.

There are notches cut out on the legs to insert the shelf. I doubt it would be very stable without the shelf.

Yes, there are plastic connectors that snap on to hold the shelf. Just skip them where you do not want the shelf. Hope that helps.

once you put the piece that the shelf can be either higher or lower on wall with the screws then that piece is stable to wall. then put the V-shape arm on and screw it to the piece that can be higher or lowered.once you figure out if you want the high, middle, lowest place for shelf to set then you tighten the screws.[this makes arm sit stable, then screw glass to the v arm and tighten the screws. it should be stable then. the caps being on you are right, there is no where for the cord to run [at least not on my wall and the way it is flushed to the wall] but here i didn't put my shelf up or under anything, i have my shelf sitting to the side above the tv. only because didn't have room to go under or above the tv. and the cords they running off the back to one side and used a rubber thing with holes for screws to hold all cords together and screwed that to wall which is behind tv and then went down so far and used black zipped tides to hole cords together and cut them off so that pieces doesn't stick out and plug in. the cords are still hide by tv but can see them little bit coming from whatever is sitting on the shelf. but not too noticeable that i cant live with and did this because never figured out how cords run down though the thing when there are screws going though to wall stopping cords for going though and couldn't figured out how to run down where corner of cap goes and come out at bottom. but then figured out that you place cords under at sides and then tighten the screws to the wall [but cap part aint sure if doing this can get use them,might have to leave off. but had already did what i did saying the heck with it and shelf tight and stable and holding box im happy and it don't look bad at all to me and everything working out just fine. [people cant walk behind or under my tv so its all good. i hope this helps you and everything works out for you and you enjoy your shelf as much as i do. myself i don't see how i could have picked a better shelf then this.

There are two mounting holes on the wall side and one on the shelf side. One of the holes on the wall side is keyhole shaped where you slip it on and push down to "lock" into place. There is only one hole to attach to shelf and it is located on the front end of the bracket.

The shelf is fastened with metal brackets that are screwed into pre-drilled holes. I suppose that the pre drilled could easily be relocated without any problems.

The bracket that fastens to the wall (that the shelf then attaches to) is intended to mount to a flat surface. You would have to build a flat surface in your corner at a 45° angle to effectively mount this in the corner. There are undoubtedly better choices than this shelf.

To a degree . . . there are "notches" every inch in the upright supports and those "notches" are what hold the shelf brackets.

Depends on the design of the shelf, and the load placed on the shelf. The vertical shear load of the brackets is good, but if you are putting a lot of weight on the shelf then no, because the lateral or horizontal load capacity of the brackets and even the screws bcomes suspect. Your shelves could pull out or at least start to sag pretty easily, maybe even under the weight of the shelving let alone the load on it. You're going to need some triangulated support out to the end of the shelving.

The brackets seem to be very sturdy, but your shelf will only be as strong as the thickness of the board and whether you have secured the brackets into underlying studs or not.
